The University of Minnesota School of Dentistry’s Minnesota Dental Resource Center for Biomaterials and Biomechanics (MDRCBB) celebrated its 25th anniversary with colleagues from around the world on October 17-18, 2016. The event featured a mini symposium with lectures by MDRCBB alumni as speakers, tours of the research center, an evening river cruise, and a video that traces the history of the School of Dentistry’s biomaterials research from an early focus on developing and testing dental materials through its current investigations into such non-dental industries as food sciences, energy, medicine, pharmacy and geobiology.
